Parenthood is formed in the atmosphere of attitudes of mothers and fathers toward their children in the family, and in society as a whole: the children’s experience gained from living with their parents after birth; the observation of the actions of other parents – actually all other children and adults – later, become the basis for their own functioning as parents in relationships with their own children. Unfortunately, periodically, we receive statistics on the careless attitude some parents have toward their children, such as leaving them unattended at home or in a closed car, in the sun, etc.; about violence against children, including sexual abuse; about inciting and sending children
as bombers in mortal terrorist attacks to supports the parent’s political ambitions; rejection of any kind, verbal or physical toward any child; deprivation of affection; a sense of insecurity; bitterness and envy toward any people around them; living conditions in the family – wealth or poverty form senses of generosity or greed; stinginess or acquisitiveness. The atmosphere of protection and care of children in the community generates the appropriate attitude to their children as future parents, and vice versa. What is essential are expressions of love and benevolence toward every child; toward other people; toward nature. Grigori Brekhman, Prenatal Psychology: 100 Years
